PhD In Ayurveda - #4007

I've been trying to figure out if Ayurveda can help with my chronic fatigue issue. It's been nearly five years now, and it feels like I’ve tried everything under the sun. My diet is decent (or at least I think so), and I try to stay active, but nothing seems to make a dent. Last year, I met someone who had been researching Ayurveda during their PhD in Ayurveda program, and they gave me a few tips. They mentioned something about balancing doshas and how it can impact energy levels, but honestly, it went way over my head. After that, I started reading more about Ayurveda and came across articles written by people who are doing a PhD in Ayurveda. The way they explain things sounds so deep and holistic, which is very different from the usual advice you get from mainstream doctors. Now, I’m wondering if I should explore Ayurveda more seriously. Could my fatigue be related to an imbalance in my doshas? One of the PhD in Ayurveda research papers I found mentioned herbs like ashwagandha and shatavari. Are those really effective, or would it be better to consult with someone directly? Another question I have is about panchakarma – I’ve seen it referenced in some blogs written by Ayurveda scholars, but I don’t understand how something like that would work for fatigue. Lastly, I’ve been diagnosed with mild hypothyroidism, and I read somewhere that people with this condition can benefit from Ayurvedic treatments. Is there anyone here who has gone through a similar issue and seen improvements? Or maybe someone pursuing a PhD in Ayurveda who can shed some light on how this all ties together? I’d also love to hear from anyone who’s had actual treatment experience with an Ayurvedic doctor. Any suggestions about how I can start or what kind of questions I should ask an Ayurvedic doctor would really help. Should I prioritize diet changes or look into therapies like abhyanga? I feel stuck and just want to know where to begin!
